100% the best rental we have ever experienced! Beautiful views and a fascinating backyard beach to view countless purple and red starfish every morning. Comfortable beds and excellent kitchen with beautiful views from every room. Scott was by far the most friendly and helpful host we have ever had. We will definitely be repeat customers.
My son and I had an amazing stay. The house is modern, super clean and organized. We enjoyed sitting in the garden and having all our meals outside. The view is like an interactive painting changing in every part of the day. Scott is an amazing host and masters the equilibrium of being present for help and hospitality and respecting our peaceful holiday feeling. Even though we came from Europe, we hope to come here again with the family.
This is a gem of a property. Gorgeous views and perfect location for accessing Victoria and the many day trip opportunities. Scott is a fantastic host!
Just what we were looking for. What a gem! The house is very clean, had all the amenities and things you need. It was quiet, beautiful, comfortable, amazing. We really enjoyed out time staying there. Saw lots of wildlife from the property and were able to go hiking in some amazing locations near by. Scott was an amazing host. Thank you!
We absolutely loved our stay. The owner, Scott, was so friendly and hospitable, he even left us a basket of fresh herbs and vegetables from his garden.
My husband and I had an amazing vacation here. We were so sad to leave but will definitely be back next time we visit the island. Everything was perfect! Thanks so much Scott for being a wonderful host.
We had an incredible time at this great vacation home! Scott is an outstanding host, and the house, view, and area were all spectacular. This was our second visit, and we can't wait to come back again. Thank you, Scott, for an unforgettable experience!
Lovely rustic getaway. Since the owner lives upstairs, check in was easy. Main living area with king bed, plus one bedroom (queen) accessed off the kitchen suited us.
Based on the photos and the positive reviews of the property and owner, we looked forward to our getaway for months. We were very pleased that our hopes were far exceeded upon arrival and throughout our stay. We had very positive interactions with the owner, Scott, and local businesses in the area. We look forward to returning someday.
Aesthetically lovely: the setting and the decor.
The host was generous with his assistance. We especially appreciated help at check in. The property has many beautiful staircases and we are an older couple.
A lovely private oceanfront property with a beautiful garden, and expansive deck. Scott was very welcoming and made sure we felt right at home. Marshmallows over a fire by the water was a highlight for the kids. Would definitely come back.
What an amazing place Scott has. The views are stunning!
The yard is perfect and nothing gets you closer to the ocean than this piece of heaven.
We were extremely comfortable and Scott was so helpful with everything.
My kids are all fancy little kids with good taste and they loved it so so much!
I recommend this place 1000%
Thank you so much Scott
Better than expected property, amazing views, cozy and secure. Exactly what my wife and I needed. Everything and more was included and our hosts were the best. They really cared about making our time at their place a wonderful experience. Even in the dreary winter, this place was awesome. Thank you Scott and Marianne for the warm hospitality. Until next time...
I can not say enough good things about this place! So serene and peaceful. It is even more beautiful than the pictures, if that is even possible! There is an amazing view from every window! We had such an incredible vacation! The Sea Side Cove is good for the soul! Thank you so much Scott you are a wonderful host! Lori & Logan
We thoroughly enjoyed our five nights at Sea Side Cove. The house was beautiful and comfortable, with everything we needed -- all in a setting of trees and abundant flowers, overlooking Sooke basin. The location was great, with access to restaurants, breweries, and other local attractions, and about a 45-minute drive to Victoria. We have stayed in a lot of VRBOs and Scott stands out as a host. He made sure we had everything we needed, including information about the area. His friendliness and graciousness were part of why we enjoyed this place so much and will likely be back.
We relocated to Sooke 7 years ago after living in Costa Rica where we built and ran Villa Mariana, a high end, luxury vacation rental home in the jungle of Manuel Antonio.
We were looking for a home by the ocean that was slightly off the beaten path but still close enough to enjoy a Great Restaurant or a day of shopping.
Living at Seaside Cove feels like living in a watercolor painting, with the ocean view providing a pallet for an evolving landscape, of mountains, trees, wildlife ,and colors. We have always loved nature and have spent many years in Costa Rica rescuing and rehabilitating everything from dogs and cats to sloths, coatimundis, even the occasional boa constrictor.
We value our creature comforts and offer our guests the same high standard of quality and detail that we enjoy in our home.
We enjoy hiking with our Dogs, taking an evening kayak or checking the crab pots for fresh Dungeness. Our favorite time is spending a warm afternoon picking berries, baking artisan bread and creating organic meals with ingredients from our garden.
Every effort is made to ensure our guests have their privacy and at the same time we are happy to make suggestions as to what to see and do during your stay.
